As a scholar, you know the value of your research and the impact it has on your subfield, discipline, and beyond. You speak about it formally and informally with peers and other academics. What about writing for the public?

Op-eds are a type of persuasive writing, and a great way to share your findings and insights beyond the academy. From local or student papers to the New York Times, academic researchers -- including graduate students -- can get the word out about their work. Doing so can make a positive difference in your career, whether it's inside and beyond the professoriate.
